Only time will tell. If not QB he can switch to TE and still be a beast. Guy is a physical specimen.

This is a very weak QB draft. Best advice would be to go after one of those QBs looking for a trade rather than to draft one.

He will go the way of previous Auburn QB's. Hopefully it won't be with the same team, though.

Most overrated player I've come across in some time.
Tebow was better throwing AND running in college and he was doubted every second coming into the draft. Overall there is no comparison. You have to be a damn fool to take this guy before pick 20, let alone top 10.
This coverage/hype is straight crazy.

As long as my Niners don't select him, I'll be happy.

His college stats are similar to Tim Tebow.

As much of a bad rap that Ryan Mallet is getting I think he would be a better qb than newton

no offense but can a black running quarterback succeed?
is that what the question is?
I thik the answer in qb busts like the above mentioned situation is a product of the mental awareness theese qbs have in college -look to one guy or run. While other qbs slide around the pocket and read the defense

Newton is yesterday's news, I think the kid we should all be looking at is Julio Jones WR from Alabama, he is for sure the pick of the litter for the draft, I see loads of potential and heart in him, something that I just don't see in Cam... He's getting too much hype and it'll end up going to his head just like Jamarcuss Russell...

I second this nomination Julio Jones is an amazing player coming right out of high school he made a big impact at Alabama he will do the same for whichever team drafts him
